PHP development behind WordPress and custom builds

WordPress is PHP. Once a project needs behaviour no plugin provides, the answer is properly written PHP — hooked in correctly, sanitised, and documented so the next developer isn't guessing.

What's included

  • Custom plugin development
  • Hooks, filters and action architecture
  • WP_Query and database query optimisation
  • Custom REST API endpoints
  • Input sanitisation, escaping and nonces
  • Refactoring inherited legacy code

Why it matters

The difference between a site that's maintainable in three years and one that isn't is usually whether custom functionality lives in a documented plugin or in a pile of edits to functions.php.

Working with me

Audit first, always

Nothing gets quoted before I've looked at what exists. You get a written scope with what I'd change, what I'd leave alone, and why.

FAQ

Common questions

Do you write code in the theme or a plugin?
Functionality goes in a plugin so it survives theme changes. Only presentation logic belongs in the theme.
What PHP versions do you target?
Current supported versions, with code that doesn't break on upgrade — a common source of sudden site failures.
